CreatingX- Leading the Deconstruction

Deconstruction“Creatives” make sure to check out the online creative community called CreatingX – they’re also behind the Joburg-based DECONSTRUCTION parties – there’s one taking place this Friday click on the flyer for more info – Malcolm Che tells us a little about CreatingX and the party below:
Malcolm:
CreatingX: the democratisation of creativity, through a social network, where the only people capitalising on ideas, are those who had them in the first place.

CreatingX is a community that you can join, not just any community… it’s for the square pegs tired of round ‘holes… um, creatives in other words… think of it as a country-wide creative community. But just what does that offer you? at this point, there are a number of cool parties going on, and you’ll learn about them on the site… cool parties and cool bands doing cool stuff that when you get to, you’ll start taking the network from virtual into reality… cheesy line, but cool concept… we have blogs. cool blogs to read and write, and as a registered member, you can document your life and times for the rest of the country to enjoy… and then comment on if they so desire… which brings us to the forums. and while the cut forum is active with numerous comments, there are still huge gaps to be filled. why not set yourself up as an active member, and share your comments with the rest of us… then there’s the media gallery… this is just another component where you can showcase your creative genius for the rest of us. similarly, why not create your own ahem, X-site, where you can create your own personal piece of the internet. dare i say, it’s a little like myspace, but with a whole lot more… see, cos you can make connections with people you like by going to their profiles, and once you’ve done that, you’ll notice something interesting when you visit other members’ profiles… you’ll see how many degrees of seperation there are between you and that person, and then request connections through the line of linking… and man, are there a lot of people already worth connecting to… and more to follow… i’m not going to bore you with more details. But i recommend you check all of the links in the menu and find out more about the site… you can always send me a message, or better yet, post a question in the forums for more info…

And what about the party? What kind of peeps are you hoping to draw? We see Miss Yucki is there so we’re sure it’s going to be lots of muti magic fun….

Regarding the party, the concept behind it is that there was always this attitude that there was never anything to do in jozi. so we started it as an alternative to the boring nights people excused their lives away with. the idea runs with the name “deconstruction” in that we want to tear down something, be it perceptions about the inner city, or barriers between people, with every new party. we started in sandton, just to get awareness going, and then moved into town with the last one, so that we could have live bands as well as DJ’s. the style of music is kinda indie electro and alternative (whatever that is these days) and johnny neon played at the last one. the concept behind it from CreatingX’ perspective is to make the creative collaborations between those who want to make parties a little more interactive. so, as you see on the flyer (this one designed by Charles from The Privates) there are prizes up for grabs from missyucki (the doll maker) as well as CD giveaways from some of the DJ’s and possibly new releases from record labels. Also, for the interactive aspect of it, missyucki will be making a Pinata for us to decapitate… so it should be loads of fun…
Building on the theme of revolution, we go french this time in honour
of Marie Antoinette. With the coolest view of the city, and ample
secure parking, the Troyeville Hotel plays host to:
The Privates (Live)
Greenisforturbo (Live)
Klassikist
Andrew the DJ
Architecture Alexia
Infidel
Richard III
The Brothers Grimm
and
YOU!
